WINTER FEAST

These chilly months make for excellent 'low and slow' eating – perfect for winter afternoons shared with family and friends.

THE BEST OF WINTER FEASTING

Without fail the cool, dark months of Winter make us want to settle in for food that’s simple, warming and most of all totally comforting. So pull out your roasting pans and prepare yourself, because things are getting cozy at Farro. We love the distinct flavours of each season in New Zealand. Winter at Farro Fresh is full of bright and fresh citrus, exploring new and interesting grains and ritual meals – those slow roasted meats and hearty soups that remind us of childhood, family and traditions of the cooks who came before us.

Our staff are always happy to help with any cooking advice that you may need and our selection of in-house recipes grows each week. Be sure to share your photos of your dishes with us over on our Facebook and Instagrampages. Be sure to tag us in your posts and use hashtag using #farrofresh to ensure we see your snaps!
